Uma Talavan didn't always know she was different.. which is not surprising, because her people were seen to have been "assimilated" since 1945. But that changed in the 1990s, when the Plains Indigenous people began their campaign for official recognition began in the 1990s. As of the end of September, the Council of Indigenous Peoples (CIP), said 1,336 people had completed registration as Indigenous Siraya… Its a triumph for Uma and her husband Edgar Makapili, who was instrumental in the discovery that the Siraya language could be revived and taught to a new generation.
